Ingredients

  • 9.9 oz (280 g) boneless skinless chicken thighs, bite-size pieces
  • 5.3 oz (150 g) beaten eggs
  • 3.9 oz (110 g) dry white rice
  • 4.2 oz (120 g) onion, sliced
  • 6.1 US fl oz (180 ml) low-salt chicken broth
  • 0.7 US fl oz (20 ml) light soy sauce
  • 2.0 tsp (8 g) sugar
  • 0.7 oz (20 g) scallions, sliced
  • 8.5 US fl oz (250 ml) water for rice

Method

  1. Cook rice with the water according to the package and keep warm.
  2. Put broth, soy sauce, sugar and onion in a skillet. Simmer for 5 minutes, then add chicken and simmer for 8–10 minutes until it reaches 165°F (74°C).
  3. Pour beaten egg evenly over the chicken, cover and cook on low for 3–5 minutes until the eggs are fully set and the mixture reaches 160°F (71°C).
  4. Divide rice into two bowls and slide half the chicken-and-egg mixture onto each. Finish with scallions.

Cook’s note: Broth replaces traditional dashi and mirin here. Eggs are fully cooked rather than left runny.

Allergens: Egg, soy and wheat in soy sauce; check broth.
